I taught my wife’s second-year JHS student today. She had to write some example sentences on a tablet. The tablet didn’t function well, it took her forever to type, and it deprived her of a chance to practice penmanship - clearly, I don’t like them. Fortunately, at least for her, her school provides them to students free of charge. JT points out that others are not so lucky, as in this Kyoto school district. - William
